[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She probably is not narcissistic, but shares similar traits as a narcissist. The traits of a narcissist are Overinflated and an unjust sense of self-importance. How many times have we seen Jlo express this trait? In a clip from her documentary, she was trying to get some guy to cancel his wedding just so he could appear in her movie. Another trait of a narcissist is that they are preoccupied with fantasies. Miss Girl believes she is a wild child from the Bronx when in actuality she was raised with a proper education and attended a private school. Believing in fantasies is alright but the issue is that she tries so hard to sell this fantasy to the rest of the world. If that doesn't formulate some evidence of narcissistic traits I don't know what does.[/quote] Maybe she’s just.. a hopeless romantic? That her vulnerability is seen as so alien and juvenile that it’s worthy of mass mockery maybe speaks more about us as a society than it does about her. I can’t think of anything less narcissistic than being a romantic of any sort but I’m no expert on the subject [/quote] Hopeless romantic refers to her fantasy life, of one "perfect" love (see the title "The greatest love story never told"). It's an idealization, a type of defense that involves mirroring and projecting idealized fantasies on to another and believing idealized fantasies about oneself (while at deeper levels there is shame and deep insecurity). It's very much tied to narcissism. True romantics tend to stay married in my opinion. They don't easily let go, if ever. They're grounded in reality. No matter how hard it may get. We saw this more in other generations. J lo bails quickly, her reality testing is not good. She's a workaholic, her first love is her career. [/quote] She said her parents were loving but she knew her mother was unhappy as a stay at home mom . They were married for 33 years because they wanted to stay together and raise the girls together. They divorced in 1999 when Jennifer was 30 years old. I think Jennifer doesn’t want her kids to see their mom unhappy . That’s why she doesn’t believe in staying together forever if it’s not happy or fulfilling. It’s probably why she works so much too because she saw how bored or miserable her mother was at home . I don’t know but Jennifer has always been the richer partner and the larger breadwinner in each relationship and marriage she’s been in . Ben said he is shocked by how hard she works and he’s met nobody in the business who works as hard as she does . I am sure being such a workaholic, needing to travel long distance often, and being the breadwinner is intimidating to even the most evolved men. In fact, the first song on her album This is me now says this. “I watched my mother miss out on her life.”[/quote] And now her kids are missing out on her life because she's so often busy with her career, travels, exercise, boyfriends, breakups, marriages, husbands, and divorces. [/quote]
